The Packers and San Francisco 49ers would flip seeds between No. 2 and No. 3 in the NFC, which is the difference between a first-round bye.

The Chicago Bears would be the No. 5 seed instead of No. 6, the difference between playing at the Packers in the wild-card round of the playoffs and playing at the New York Giants. You can decide if that's an advantage or a disadvantage, but it's different nonetheless.

The Seahawks and Washington Redskins would flip spots, putting the Redskins in the final playoff position as the No. 6 seed and the Seahawks one game outside the playoff circle as the No. 7 seed.
